The Government of India, the Government of Nagaland and the World Bank has signed a USD 68 million project to enhance the governance of schools across Nagaland as well as to improve teaching practices and learning environments in select schools
A Finance Ministry statement said, “The Nagaland Enhancing Classroom Teaching and Resources Project will improve classroom instruction; create opportunities for the professional development of teachers, and build technology systems to offer students and teachers with more access to blended and online learning as well as allow better monitoring of policies and programs. Such an integrated approach will complement conventional delivery models and help reduce the challenges posed by COVID-19.
Nearly 1,50,000 students and 20,000 teachers in the government education system in Nagaland will get an advantage from the statewide reforms in schools.
C.S. Mohapatra, Additional Secretary, Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance, said that the education project in Nagaland will address the crucial gaps faced by students and teachers and play an important role in the development of the state.
Nagaland currently faces challenges of weak school infrastructure, lack of opportunities for the professional development of teachers and limited capacity on the part of communities to partner effectively with the school system. The Covid-19 pandemic has further accentuated these challenges and created additional stress and disruptions to the state's school education system.
